After divorcing my ex-husband, I became the princess of the county

Chapter 16 The king of this county has no interest in beauty
When Jiang Suling heard at the gate of Buzhuang that people used Lu Wanzhi as a talking point, she couldn't help but annoyed: "They are going too far, talking about you behind your back, I'll go and talk about them."

Lu Wanzhi stopped Jiang Suling and said: "The wives of the inner house rely on these conversations to survive, let them talk, go choose the cloth first."

Jiang Suling looked at Lu Wanzhi worriedly and said, "Wanzhi, although they talk a little bit, they have some truths. Your natal family has three younger sisters, and your second younger sister is eighteen and hasn't been engaged yet. If you reconcile, you will be implicated." Regarding the second sister's marriage, I don't know if the Lu family will agree to your reconciliation?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "I haven't told my parents about the reconciliation yet, and I'm waiting for them to come back to discuss this with them face to face. Writing letters will only make them worry."

Jiang Suling patted Lu Wanzhi's hand and said: "Whether your family agrees to reconcile you or not, I just hope that you will not be wronged, everything is mine."

Lu Wanzhi smiled at Jiang Suling and said, "I have been wronged for three years, and I will never be wronged again."

The two men are picking out the newly arrived fabrics in the cloth shop.

Lu Wanzhi looked at a piece of cyan fabric and thought it looked good, "This cyan fabric is suitable for the college uniforms of the students in the academy."

As Lu Wanzhi said, she gestured towards Zhao Heng with the blue lake brocade.

The new mistress from Buzhuang praised: "Madam, you have the right vision. This piece of green bamboo and lake brocade is just right for your husband. You two are newlyweds. You really match each other very well!"

Hearing this, Zhao Heng said, "The king of this county and her don't look like newlyweds?"

Lu Wanzhi also said repeatedly: "You misunderstood, this is my student."

Bu Zhuang Xiaoer didn't expect that the two people who were so right were not husband and wife, so he bowed and said, "It's the little one who made a mistake, and I will compensate you both."

Lu Wanzhi said: "I want 150 bolts of cloth, please give me the cheapest price."

As soon as Bu Zhuang Xiaoer heard that it was a big customer, he said: "Madam, wait a moment, I will go and invite my shopkeeper to come out."

The shopkeeper knew Lu Wanzhi, knowing the quantity she needed, said: "Since Madam Hou wants it, I will charge you 450 taels of silver and help you make the ready-made clothes."

Upon hearing the number, Lu Wanzhi said, "Okay, I'll order someone to bring the measurements tomorrow."

Lu Wanzhi helped Jiang Suling pick out a lot of fabrics, and it was already noon.

The three of them found a nearby restaurant, and just after ordering a lot of good dishes, Jiang Suling got the news that her brother was crying at home, so she went back first.

When Xiao Er brought the food, he said with a smile: "Are you two newlyweds? They are a match made in heaven."

Lu Wanzhi said: "You misunderstood, we are not husband and wife, he is my apprentice."

Xiao Er was taken aback, "Huh? You two are so well matched that you are not husband and wife. It's a pity. Please eat slowly, two distinguished guests."

After Xiao Er stepped back, Lu Wanzhi frowned and said, "Why do those Xiao Er think you and I are husband and wife today, and I look like someone with such bad eyesight?"

Zhao Heng snorted softly: "Where is the lack of vision when you look at the king of this county? It's the lack of vision that the king of the county likes you. You don't look as good-looking as I do!"

Lu Wanzhi glanced at Zhao Heng's appearance indifferently, but really couldn't reply, after all, she was indeed not as good looking as Zhao Heng.

While the two of them were dining, they could hear gossip from diners in the lobby outside.

"Have you heard? The third girl from the Shen family of the Duke of Zhen's mansion is going to be Princess Chu!"

"No way? The third girl of the Shen family is only 16 years old this year. The King of Chu can be her father, right?"

"You don't know, there are three houses in the Duke of Zhen's mansion. The eldest son of the Duke of Zhen died early, and he gave the position of son to his grandson, Shen Luozhi.

But why is the second wife of the Shen family willing to give up the position of son?Doesn't this mean that if the third girl of the Shen family becomes the princess of Chu, it might be the turn of the second wife of the Shen family to be the son of the world? "

Zhao Heng listened to the rumors outside and said, "What the hell are they talking about!"

Lu Wanzhi raised her eyes and glared at Zhao Heng, "It's time to eat, be careful."

The outsiders were discussing again: "How do you know that Miss Shen will be the Princess of Chu? The King of Chu has stayed for Princess Chu for 15 years without marrying a wife. He has a deep affection for Princess Chu, so he may not be fond of the Third Miss of the Shen family."

"Because Third Miss Shen looks very similar to Princess Chu back then, so this Third Miss Shen might really be able to become Princess Chu."

Zhao Heng asked Lu Wanzhi, "Then Shen Luozhi's younger sister really looks similar to my mother?"

Lu Wanzhi replied: "I don't remember what Princess Chu looks like."

Lu Wanzhi should have met Princess Chu when she was young, but when Princess Chu passed away, she was only four years old, and she had no impression of Princess Chu at all.

"However, the third girl from the Shen family is extremely good-looking."

Zhao Heng said to Lu Wanzhi: "I'm going to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to see what the third girl from the Shen family looks like!"

"You are a student of Qinglan Academy now, so don't mess with my academy's reputation."

Lu Wanzhi said, "She is a daughter raised in a deep boudoir, how could she meet you, a notorious dude? Don't scare her."

Zhao Heng whispered: "I just want to go and see if she really looks like my mother."

Lu Wanzhi thought that Zhao Heng was also a poor child who lost his mother when he was young, and said: "It's against the rules for you to go to see the daughter of the Shen family rashly, and you are also afraid of delaying the reputation of Miss Shen, why don't you go back to Lu Garden and I will show you Miss Shen's appearance?" Draw it and see if it looks like it."

Zhao Heng asked: "Do you still know how to draw portraits?"

Lu Wanzhi nodded and said: "Not everyone is as ignorant as you, who can accomplish nothing."

Zhao Heng snorted softly: "The king of this county can also draw portraits, and the emperor's grandmother and uncle praised me for my good painting."

"Really?" Lu Wanzhi was very suspicious.

Zhao Heng pulled Lu Wanzhi's sleeve and said, "If you don't believe me, I'll take you to get a portrait in Lu Yuan."

……

Back in Lu Yuan, Lu Wanzhi didn't go to take a portrait first as Zhao Heng wished, but went to visit the sick Gu Qingchi first.

The two entered Gu Qingchi's room, and saw Gu Qingchi lying on Yulan's lap, with Yulan holding his head.

Seeing this scene, Lu Wanzhi frowned slightly, "Yulan!"

Yulan was startled when she heard Lu Wanzhi's voice, she got up, and Gu Qingchi's head, which was lying on her lap, flew into the air and hit the edge of the bed, "Hiss."

Zhao Heng chuckled, "It deserves it."

Gu Qingchi covered his head, and said to the gloating Zhao Heng: "We are cousins! You actually said I deserve it?"

Lu Wanzhi asked Yulan, "How is Second Young Master Gu's illness?"

"Girl, the doctor came to see you just now, and he said that the fever has subsided and there is no problem, just take a few more medicines in the next few days and you will be fine."

Lu Wanzhi said: "Then you don't have to come and take care of him, Yuzhu, you go to the academy and find two young men to serve the four nobles who are staying in the Lu Garden."

Polygonatum should be.

Lu Wanzhi went to the study, looked at Yulan coldly and said: "Yulan, you grew up with me, I know your nature, you won't mess around, and you don't know how to climb dragons and phoenixes, but why did you dare Gu Qingchi today?" so close to you?"

Yulan continued: "Girl, Second Young Master Gu pretended to be sick and threatened me. I really don't have the slightest desire to be a dragon or a phoenix. You also know that what I hate the most is being made a concubine."

Lu Wanzhi knew that Yulan's sister had been a concubine for a wealthy businessman, and her fate was dismal, with one dead body and two lives.

Therefore, Yulan would rather be her slave than her parents would wait for her to grow up and sell her to a wealthy family as a concubine.

"Gu Qingchi is still threatening you?"

Yulan nodded and said: "Yes, Young Master Gu said that if I don't take good care of him, he will tell the family that you took away his quilt and made him catch a cold. That's why I agreed to his nonsense."

Lu Wanzhi glanced at Zhao Heng with displeasure, "I thought you were just dandies but not lustful, but I didn't expect you to be lustful, stay away from my maid in the future."

Zhao Heng said unconvinced: "That's Gu Qingchi's lust, what's the matter with the king of this county?"

"Besides, the king of this county has no interest in beauty. After all, I have never seen a woman more beautiful than me. I am the biggest beauty. Why are you so lustful?"

Lu Wanzhi: "..."

She had never seen someone who could say such narcissistic words with such audacity, but what Zhao Heng said was very reasonable.

　Xiaojun Wang: "This county king is not narcissistic, but self-confident!"
